Doesn't help that most Comic Books have a very narrow styleset and even the more unique publications show similarities with any other.

My drawing advice is, don't fuck with a Visha Kanya (literally). If you do that, you will soon die and be unable to continue. Otherwise just keep practicing and you're good.

@Mech Sounds like a good way to go if you ask me

@RP Yeah. But sadly, consumer perspective thinks otherwise (I'm talking in the context of using refs/lifting in comic books).

I do get the intent and message, though.

My only problem with quotes like that is that they're a tad too general. "If it's easy, you're doing it WRONG!" kind of vibe.

So they send you this beautiful girl, and you have sex with her and you DIE.

my favorite quote is probably from hokusai

It is. A Visha Kanya is a beautiful girl who was fed on poisons and the antidote to those poisons from infancy. They were said to build up an immunity to the poisons running through them. But have sex with one KILLS YOU.

@Mech Sounds like heavy voodoo shit..

Refs cannot be spoken of in the same context as copies or hacks. One uses something as a visual aid to create something new while the other seeks to replicate it. The aim of the artist is pretty clear. Anyone who thinks less of a craftsperson for using refs can eat a D.

if it doesnt hurt it means you're only doing whats easy. doesnt matter if you remember the quote, remember that the easy path leads to stagnation

See how that works? Haha!
